100% Organic Black Cardamom

Black Cardamom seeds pods have a strong camphor-like flavor, with a smoky character derived from the method of drying. The pods are used as a spice, in a similar manner to the green Indian cardamom pods, but with a different flavor. Unlike green cardamom, this spice is rarely used in sweet dishes. Its smoky flavor and aroma derive from traditional methods of drying over open flames. The whole pods can be used in bland lentil and rice dishes in an unsubtle manner. Also in stews, and curries –the pods are kept whole and are removed at the end of the cooking.
